Hello Cristopher!
Welcome to AW forum. I'm like you, very intrested in washingmachines, and I've also been intrested as long as I remember. My mum, aunt and granmother have told me that when I was around 8 months old, I was sitting in the front of my aunts Candy D4.104X washer, and followed the programme from start to the end. Now, I'm 20 years, and have now taken the certificate for repairing electric appliances, and I now work for Asko here in Norway. I've also worked at Miele, and in a small workshop for Gorenje, Electrolux, Zanussi and Asko before. My favourite brand is Asko, and I have too many machines:P I have a Candy Aquamatic 3 too, like yours, but with brown fascia and chrome door. I like your mini dryer. I'm looking for one too, but compactmodels is very rare here. Would love to hear more of your washer stories:) |

Hi Chris... nice to see your toy washers :-)
I'm not that young anymore... but I can assure you that I've always had a thing for washing machines ever since I had enough strengh in my optical nerves to open my eyes LOL My first experience with them dates back to when I was knee-high to a grasshopper... I would not leave the washer alone until one day I managed to flood the place by opening the door during the rinse cycle! The old victim machine did not have an electronic lock but a plastic lock on the handle which needed to be pushed down in order to operate the handle itself... but I guess I spent enough time to figure a way to open it. But that was only the start... I tortured the poor thing as I was growing up... now... I feel that washing machines should be a protected species :-P |

This was a very nice toy until it broke. It was not vintage one so I was not sad to see it go but I had a matching fridge and oven to go with it. |
